    I hate to post this here, but I didn't know if any of you have or known someone who has attended this "educator" in order to acquire the 7 certification's that they offer? If so, on their web site they state that those certifications (I will list them below), are some of the most sought after certifications in the Computer/IT industry, is this true? Will you be able to find an entry level position with these certification's and no 4 year degree? I currently have 73 credit hours of work (Business) at NC State but don't have the money to go back, nor can I quit work to finish my degree. However, I would love to try the Computer/IT field; networking, servers, and programming has always interested me! Thanks for any help in advance.

    I can't say whether or not you can find a position with a certificate but no degree. I will say, however, that as a MCSD (Microsoft Certified Solution Developer), I was able to ask a bit more in salary.

    You can, my wife had just certificates when she became IT Coordinator (Director), she completed her 4 year degree after obtaining the position.
